Default "Engineer's clearance received"

I believe the Brits refer to their licensed mechanics as Engineers. Hence, the
call would mean that the aircraft is mechanically ready.


So would this be a reference to the ground crew? I heard it just
before they started to taxi, on a cockpit video, and if I recall
correctly the ground crew had just disconnected.
